Otto von Bismarck, quoted in: Emil Ludwig, Bismarck; The Story of a Fighter, (Blue Ribbon Books, 1927, reprinted 1934), tr. Eden and Cedar Paul, p. 67:
That which is imposing here on earth . . . is always akin to the fallen angel; who is beautiful, but lacks peace; is great in his plans and efforts, but never succeeds; is proud, and melancholy.
